Although Atletico Madrid had already achieved a two-goal advantage in the opening 15 minutes, Diego Simeone, who has always liked to resolutely implement the "defensive counterattack" tactics after the score is ahead, did not let his team's overall formation shrink, but continued to press high in the Real Madrid half as at the beginning of the game.

It seems that today's Atletico Madrid team wants to completely suppress its rivals with "offensive football". After all, if they use defensive counter-attacking tactics to win, those media belonging to the opposing camp are likely to use "opportunistic" as an excuse to help Real Madrid find an excuse to lose. What's more, in the first leg of the Madrid Germany match in the 2010-2011 season, Atletico Madrid also took the lead in the game to break through the opponent's goal, but after the then Atletico Madrid coach Quique Flores (Quique Flores) adopted a comprehensive defensive posture in order to maintain the lead, due to the loss of the right to fight for the midfield, the morale of the Real Madrid team scored four goals in a row, and finally hated the Bernabeu Stadium.

Although Atletico Madrid in this game seems to be playing against Real Madrid, in fact, only Diego Simeone himself knows best, and his team's "offensive football" is nothing more than a false appearance.

That's right, even when Real Madrid players get the ball at the back, the likes of Diego Costa, Feng Quan, Alda Turan and the core of the midfield, Koke, will press ferociously high in the opposition half. But at the same time, Atletico Madrid's backline players all stayed in their own half, ready to guard against the opponent's quick counter-attack.

Although captain Gabi will also press the half of the court when the team is in an attacking state, he will never venture into the opponent's 30-meter area without absolute certainty. After all, his main role in attack is to move the opposition defence with accurate long ball transfers. Therefore, his position does not need to be too high.

Although, if Real Madrid choose to quickly pass the ball directly through midfield to the opposition half, Atletico Madrid's high pressing tactics are likely to be meaningless. However, how could Carlo Ancelotti, who has always loved pass-and-control football, be willing to use the old-fashioned "English football" rushing tactics?

What's more, the more than 80,000 spectators at the Bernabeu Stadium also don't like to see "simple and rough" football. Otherwise, Mourinho, who is good at "swinging the bus" tactics, will not leave in disgrace.

It is precisely because of the mentality of Carlo Ancelotti and Real Madrid fans that Diego Simeone dared to adopt the tactic of "pressing from the high" in this Madrid derby. But in fact, the tactics adopted by Atletico Madrid in this game are equivalent to the defensive counterattack tactics of "moving forward in formation".

In fact, the main reason why Diego Simeone's "high pressing" tactics are only executed by four players is the speed advantage of Feng Quan.

Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for a player to take into account both the wing and the middle of the field when performing the "high pressing" tactic. However, the "King of Speed" Feng Quan can rely on his superior speed advantage to put pressure on Real Madrid's right wing-back Carvajal and right-sided midfielder Ilya Ramendi.

In this way, with Feng Quan himself enough to be used as two players, Atletico Madrid is equivalent to five players in the front court to implement the "high pressing" tactic.

With Feng Quan and others' ferocious pressing in the front court, the defensive pressure on the Atletico Madrid team has naturally been reduced a lot. Moreover, even if the Real Madrid team directly launched a long pass over the top in their own half, the two fullbacks Felipe Luiz and Juanfran under the increase of [God's Light] have a lot of confidence that they can deal with the rapid raid of Ronaldo and Di Maria. Even though Real Madrid's two wingers are very good at dribbling, it is not easy to break into the box.

Although Atletico Madrid's "high pressing" tactics disrupted Ancelotti's pre-match deployment to a certain extent. But as the game time went on, the fitness of Diego Costa, Alda Turan and others began to gradually decline in the non-stop running.

When the first half reached 30 minutes, except for Feng Quan, whose [endurance] attribute has been greatly enhanced in the past year, the remaining three Atletico Madrid players who implemented the "high pressing" tactics were already difficult to pose a threat to the ball in the first place. In this way, the attacking organization of the Real Madrid team has become more and more smooth.

At this time, the drawbacks of Diego Simeone's "pseudo-high pressing" tactics gradually became apparent.

Due to the relationship between the four of them to implement the "high pressing" tactic, when the four of them are forcing the ball in the front court, they will inevitably need faster speed and more running distance to achieve the effect of delaying the opponent's attack. But in this way, it will also increase the physical exertion of the four of them.

In the 33rd minute of the first half of the game, Real Madrid's Mesut Özil (Mesut Özil) received a pass from the goalkeeper seven or eight meters away from his own penalty area and completed the turn, and easily got rid of Koke, who had obviously decreased in physical fitness, with just a change in rhythm.

Ozil, who dribbled to the centre circle, quickly swung his left leg backwards in the face of Gabi who pounced, and at the same time made a pass to the right.

However, when Gabi reflexively stretched out his left leg to block the pass, Ozil flicked the ball sideways with the outside of his left foot and then sent a through ball into the open space on the left side of the pitch.

Immediately afterwards, Cristiano Ronaldo, who ran wildly along the left sideline, grabbed the ball before Juanfran did.

Although Ronaldo was preempted by Juanfran who had increased his physical [reaction] ability, the Portuguese superstar still relied on his skillful ball control skills, while looking up to observe the position in the penalty area, and constantly making various feints to try to break into the penalty area.

Moments later, when Real Madrid's starting centre-forward Karim Benzema took advantage of his speed to take a good position, Cristiano Ronaldo, who was holding the ball, suddenly swung his left foot and made a feint of a cross.

When Juanfran subconsciously stretched his leg to block the cross line, Ronaldo dunked the ball with his left foot, and then completed the turn and completed a powerful heavy bombardment directly near the corner of the penalty area.

Since goalkeeper Courtois did not expect Ronaldo to choose a long shot when the angle was not very good, he ignored the defense of the near corner of the goal and chose to stand in the center of the goal.

Therefore, Courtois, who misjudged the ball, could only watch the ball shot by Cristiano Ronaldo, grazing the post on the left side of the goal and flying into the goal he was guarding......
